Migrating Knowledge Bases in Azure: Exporting and Importing KB

Exporting and Importing Knowledge Bases using Azure REST API

Question

You have a requirement to migrate your knowledge base (KB) to a different region.

You plan to create a new knowledge base from an existing knowledge base using a migration method while maintaining the same knowledge base id.

To achieve this objective, you export the knowledge base in the existing region, create a new knowledge base in the new Azure region and import the knowledge base by using the exported file.

Review the REST API statements that you would use for exporting and importing KB.

A. B. C. D.

Correct Answer: D.

Option A is incorrect because GET is used to download the KB, and PUT is used for importing the Knowledge Base.

Option B is incorrect because the import KB command used here is meant to create a new KB.

It does not maintain the same KB id and hence does not meet the requirement.

Option B is incorrect because GET is used for downloading the KB, and PUT is used during the import process.

Option D is correct because the GET command here is used for exporting a KB, and the PUT command meets our requirement of importing the KB while maintaining the KB id.

The correct answer is D.

To export a knowledge base (KB) from an existing region, you can use the following REST API statement:

bash
GET {Endpoint}/qnamaker/v4.0/knowledgebases/{kbId}/{environment}/qna

This statement exports the QnA pairs and metadata for the KB in a JSON file format. The endpoint refers to the base URL for the QnA Maker service, and {kbId} refers to the unique identifier for the KB you want to export. The {environment} parameter specifies the environment to export (for example, 'Test' or 'Prod').

To import the exported KB file to a new region, you can use the following REST API statement:

bash
PUT {Endpoint}/qnamaker/v4.0/knowledgebases/{kbId}

This statement imports the knowledge base from the exported JSON file. The endpoint refers to the base URL for the QnA Maker service, and {kbId} refers to the unique identifier for the KB you want to import.

It's important to note that when importing the KB, the new knowledge base needs to have the same ID as the original KB. This can be achieved by creating a new knowledge base in the new region with the same ID as the original KB before importing the exported file.

Option A and B are incorrect because they use incorrect HTTP methods for exporting and importing the KB.

Option C is incorrect because it uses the wrong HTTP method for exporting the KB. Additionally, it's important to note that the REST API statement for importing the KB should refer to the specific file that was exported, rather than creating a new knowledge base.
